    I'm thinking that it is either a variety called "figaro mix" which is sold as abedding plant in packs or 4" pots, or these plants maybe a slightly larger variety treated with a retardant at the greenhouse. ... If thats the case, wintering over and growing on next year , it may have a much larger form.
